Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
To objectively determine whether colour vision is reduced with a blue-light filtering
intraocular lens compared with a colourless intraocular implant in cataract surgery
Secondary Outcomes (2)
To determine whether patients subjectively are able to tell whether they have been
implanted with yellow tinted intraocular lens during their cataract surgery or colourless one
Interventions
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- patients who have had uncomplicated cataract surgery in one eye and have a cataract in the other eye
- patients who are over 18 years of age
- patients who are fully able to independently give consent to have surgery
You may not qualify if:
- patients who have any other ocular co-morbidity that may account for reduction in vision in either eye (as this may confound the condition)
- patients who are colour blind
- patients who suffered previous post-operative complications
- patients under 18
